Last year the far-right looked strong in Europe. Now, the cracks are starting to show 23.04.2026

The once seemingly united far-right alliance in Europe, bolstered by figures like Donald Trump, is now showing significant cracks due to global conflicts, economic pressures, and diverging national interests. The war involving Iran has starkly highlighted these divisions, forcing leaders like Italy's Giorgia Meloni and Germany's AfD to prioritize domestic concerns over ideological solidarity with the US agenda. Hungary's Viktor Orbán, a key figure in fostering a "Far-Right International," recently faced an electoral defeat, signaling a broader shift away from his confrontational strategy. While still influential, these parties are grappling with the inherent tension between national self-interest and international cooperation, potentially leading them to engage more pragmatically with EU structures out of necessity rather than conviction.
